Took the drive along the southern rim and tripped through a lot of snow on several different short jaunts to scenic overlooks. My Civic at the time barely had enough in it to make it through the decent amount of snow at the rim elevation, and still kicking myself for not bringing camping gear to hike down in and stay overnight.

It's like an inverse peak so it belongs here. Running across this amazing feature was the best run of my life, I really didnt want it to end, even after 40 + miles. 11 hours; Tr here: http://zoomloco.xanga.com/734677318/no-trophy-no-flowers-no-flashbulbs-no-line/

2 friends and I hiked down to Indian Gardens, spent the night then hiked to the river and back out the next day. I remember playing my harmonica along the trail and being blown away by the sound echoing off the canyon walls.

Been here twice so far, I'm sure I'll be back for more challenge some day! Best part of the first trip was the BIG bald eagle who flew right above my head as I was sitting to rest on a ledge. Unfortunately, too slow to get my camera out to catch it close-up!... Should go back to photograph these amazing big birds!

Hiked down to tanner beach and then day hiked to mouth of the little Colorado and back. Longest 20 miles of my life! Very hot in that region but little c is a great place to spend a day. Also have hiked to plateau point several times. I am addicted. Always thinking about returning.
